Hello Scott … I find it hard to understand how killing with bullets is a skill, but perhaps it’s different if the kill is eaten. I find wild duck shooting as unnecessary and destructive of all - thanks Scott - Lindsay

Hi, Scott, thanks for paying me a visit. I bought four books with my prize money, so thanks for reminding me of that. I need to tell the judge of that contest how I spent my gift!!

Still digesting this one. You have challenged me a bit here, though think I get it. Like your build up and writing style. Maybe too much festive food slowing me down. Can you give me summary in your reply, as I want to do justice to this well penned piece. Best regards David in NZ
